Negotiations Amid Violence: Hamas Consults Palestinian Groups on Gaza Ceasefire
Hamas is discussing with other Palestinian factions regarding a ceasefire proposal and hostage exchange deal put forth by the US as violence in Gaza continues.
Hamas has stated it is reviewing a new ceasefire proposal from the US, as violence in Gaza escalates. Israeli airstrikes continue, killing numerous individuals, including those displaced from their homes. Hamas confirmed it is consulting with other Palestinian groups before officially responding to the ceasefire terms, which include the release of hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners, resumption of humanitarian aid, and a demand for assurances against renewed Israeli military action.
The negotiations come against a backdrop of relentless Israeli bombardment in Gaza, reported to have resulted in at least 57,130 deaths since the conflict reignited following the Hamas-led attack on October 7, 2023. President Trump anticipates a resolution soon, while Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu reiterates his commitment to securing the release of all hostages and dismantling Hamas's military capabilities.
